C#               B       F#
There wasn't a thing to say
       C#                B      F#
As we drove past to the desert way
 C#             B       F#
Through silent seas of sand
   C#                B        F#
Feel time running through my hands

And the sun is burning bright
And the air says life is tight
And my brain says that someone dies
When she shows me the endless lies

Chorus:
 C#           E
And if you're asking why
        C#             E
She said look into the evil eye again
C#            E
And if you're asking why
        C#             E
She said look into the evil eye again

When are you coming down?
Yes the world you see is spinning round
Days are short and lost and found
And the night is long at the burial ground

Chorus

C#
It's all the same
E
It's all for nothing?
C#
It's all to blame
E
It's all for nothing

C#
In my mind the day is dry
The car of chrome reflects the sky
When she flies all I know
My insides hear me cry
Skulls can grin
Vultures spin
Engines whirl
Life begins
Snakes to skin
Blood to drink
And all I know is life begins

Chorus

C#
It's all the same
E
It's all for nothing?
C#
It's all to blame
E
It's all for nothing
C#
It's all the same
E
It's all for nothing?
C#
It's all to blame
E
It's all for nothing

We stood on the ancient bones
With our sacrafice we atoned
For a world now lost in stone
Please come alive for us alone

There wasn't a thing to say
As we drove fast to the desert way
Through silent seas of sand
Feel time running through my hands
